My Way - Frank Sinatra
Monday, April 30th, 2007 And now the end is near, and so I face the final curtain,
My friend, I’ll say it clear, I’ll state my case of which I’m certain,
I’ve lived, a life that’s full, I traveled each and every highway,
And more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Regrets, I’ve had a few, but then again, to few too mention,
I did what I had to do, I saw it thru without exemption,
I planned each chartered course, each careful step along the by way,
But more, much more than this, I did it my way.
Yes there were times, I’m sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,
But thru it all when there was doubt, I ate it up, and spit it out,
I faced it all, and I stood tall, and did it my way.
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried, I’ve had my fill, my share of losing,
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing,
To think I did all that, and may I say "Not in a shy way",
Oh no, oh no not me, I did my way.
For what is man, what has he got, it not himself,
Then he has not to say the things he truly feels,
And not the words of one who kneels,
The record shows, I took the blows, and did it my way.
Yes it was my way.
Itulah sebuah lirik lagu yang cukup bermakna buat aku. Lagu My Way – Frank Sinatra, boleh dikatakan antara lagu² English paling best yang aku dengar. Kisah hidup lagenda muzik Amerika ni, sudah aku baca. Hidupnya penuh dengan berliku, sebelum mengecap kemashuran sebagai ikon muzik Amerika. Lagu My Way, dinyanyikan dengan penuh penghayatan dan asyik. Lagu ini juga banyak dinyanyikan oleh ramai artis² terkenal seperti Paul Anka, Robbie Williams dan ramai lagi. Sebuah karya muzik yang boleh dianggap ‘masterpiece’.
